In 1934, Knickerbocker Knitting Company, later to become Champion, created the original hooded sweatshirt. Crafted out of cotton jersey and produced using sink weave machines to produce heavier fabric designed to protect athletes against colder temperatures, this garment was the precursor to today’s popular sports hooded sweatshirts. The hood was added to provide more comfortable wear and to keep away from cold breezes, originally worn by sports teams and industrial workers such as tree surgeons and cold storage warehouse laborers. In the 1990s, it exploded onto New York’s rap scene thanks to bands such as Wu-Tang Clan and Cypress Hill who promoted its gritty vibes. Soon thereafter, its symbolic meaning spread among youth who felt excluded by society – often creating its own subculture within society itself.
